Lui's Knob Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Anyone think torts may be hired for the comets not the Canucks? Arniel promoted to assistant coach ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangler696969 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I will be real mad if we let Torts go. He is the best, most accomplished coach out there plain and simple. I think MG should be fired if there isn't a hiring by tomorrow. Dallas could still swoop him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonfruits Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Sather should really keep his mouth shut when it comes to abilities to do a job especially when he is probably one of the worst gm's in the game right now with the idiotic contract he gives out thinking its the 90's still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangler696969 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Great basis to fire someone. It actually is. He can't trade Luongo. He can't hire a coach. All of them go somewhere else after he interviews them Its a combination of everything. I've had it up to here with this guy. It will be a final straw of sorts.

Up to where? that doesnt make any sense over the internet. I like that he's patient. but sometimes i think MG is just a front for the media and LG is the real gm since he makes trade calls and extensions and everything else.

Mrock-763 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Seems like a stern well spoken intelligent guy. Never knew about his eye injury. Wouldn't mind him as coach over Tortorella if it came down to it. 1988 – Calder Cup Hershey Bears (Player) 1991 – Calder Cup Springfield Indians (Player, Team Captain) 1998 – Calder Cup Philadelphia Phantoms (Player; Team Captain) 2005 – Calder Cup Philadelphia Phantoms (Head Coach) 2008 – The Hockey News Coach of the Year 2012 - Stanley Cup "Los Angeles Kings" (Assistant Coach) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I hope everyone will be real entertained by Tortorella's post game comments while we're losing game after game. Anyone that watches hockey because of the coaches is watching it for the wrong reasons. Sather summed up what I was saying about Tortorella. He's an old school coach in a new school league. Today's game needs creativity and puck control, not dump and chase, and sitting back and blocking shots. Stevens and someone like Maurice is more of what this team needs.

DeNiro Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Glen Sather? The same guy who signed the Richards, Gomez, Redden contracts? Doesn't matter what he did as GM, what he says about the game today is true. Which is why Tortorella has had limitted success since 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrock-763 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 The part in the end when he talks about his painting (sinking ship or ship caught in a storm fighting through it) kind of reminds me what the Canucks are going through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rounoush Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Agree with everyone here. Stevens seems to be the much better choice. Tortorella is such a short term solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay86 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 i dont know how much i care for this "lets try hatd and keep getting better do our best " nonsense...that reminds me of our captain saying after almost every playoff loss that "we played pretty good.." get someone in the room and light a fire..maybe it is only a short term solution..but this team does seem to have a short window to compete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieCrumbs Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Stevens is SUCH a better fit for the Canucks. Torts is such a gimmick. The idea of having a hard nosed coach like him is, I'll admit, pretty tempting. But realistically this guy would fit HORRIBLY with our core and our franchise in general.
